For videophiles, equipment reviewers and consumer electronics professionals, the launch of a new, top-of-the-line Sony DVD player is always an occasion. In 1997, Sony’s original DVP-S7000 was acclaimed as the “Reference Standard.” In 1998, the second-generation DVP-S7700 took DVD playback to a new level of accuracy. Now the Sony DVP- S9000ES DVD-Video/CD/SACD player redefines the category. -

A Major New Opportunity In 1997, Sony’s original DVP-S7000 helped launch the DVD- Video format and was quickly acclaimed as the “Reference Standard.” In 1998, the second-generation DVP-S7700 took DVD playback to a new level of accuracy. Of course, both players were designed to maximize performance with the huge universe of televisions using 525-line interlace scanning. - Page 5 Concerns such as flicker, motion artifacts and 3-2 cadence glitches can visibly degrade the viewing experience. As later sections will show, the Sony DVP- S9000ES represents a thorough engineering solution — one that realizes the full potential of progressive scanning.
- Page 6 FFRFs at all, Sony’s dedicated microprocessor with motion detection can elicit full performance. The microprocessor can judge the correlation between fields very accurately, supplementing the FFRF detection system. As a result, the Sony DVP-S9000ES can read and reproduce even this worst-case disc in beautiful, stable 525P.

- Page 9 0 (off) to 7 (maximum). Clear Frame Still Image Performance The third and final function of Sony’s MPEG Image Processor is Clear Frame. As many disappointed VHS users already know, when you hit the Pause button on a VCR, you see only the information for a single field.

So the player applies high-resolution frame pause for all Fig. 10: Sony’s Clear Frame system delivers superior still images of video-originated DVDs. Moving areas, like the car are reproduced in motion-stopping field pause. But motionless areas, like the stop sign are reproduced in the full resolution of frame pause.

- Page 12 Carefully Selected Parts More than a labor of technology, the DVP-S9000ES represents the enthusiasm that Sony engineers share with high-end videophiles. That’s why the player incorporates a variety of carefully selected resistors, inductors, semiconductors and capacitors. Each plays a specific role in maximizing video performance.

A Listening Experience Beyond All Expectations The DVP-S9000ES is more than just a cutting edge Sony DVD-Video player. It’s a Sony high fidelity component of the first order. This is the very first DVD player to be part of Sony’s acclaimed ES Series, the Elevated Standard in audio/video. - Page 14 For nearly 30 years, digital audio has been based upon Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) technology — and nobody knows PCM better than Sony. We’ve used it to develop everything from Compact Disc and DAT to professional DASH recorders and digital mixing consoles. But to achieve a truly fundamental...
- Page 15 DSD Decorder Organizing the data into left and right pulse streams is the job of the DSD decoder. A Sony-built LSI, the DSD decoder first reads the invisible watermark — a key anti-piracy feature — and then decodes the incoming data. Data on the disc originate as alternating bursts of left-channel and right-channel information.
- Page 16 Power transformer cores and windings can vibrate and degrade the sound, radiating 60 Hz hum into nearby audio circuits. That’s why Sony shields the audio circuit board. And that’s why Sony chose twin R-Core power transformers. The R stands for round.
